Thread: One Thing Migrant Smugglers Can't Do Without: Big U.S. Banks

Part of the problem with stopping the rampant use of both banks and money service businesses like Western Union by smugglers is the fact that there’s an inherent conflict of interest for these institutions. By heavily scrutinizing large and/or suspicious transactions, banks could lose out on significant sources of income by shutting down lucrative deposit accounts. Many smaller banks don’t or can’t invest in an adequate number of trained and experienced compliance officers. The federal government bears just as much responsibility for this lapse in security. Historically, the Department of Justice has chosen not to prosecute bank officers on criminal charges, preferring to let the Treasury Department levy astronomical fines instead for fear of destabilizing the US financial system.

The federal government at this point in time bears 100% of the responsibility for this lapse in security. For anyone to blame banks or even employers when the position of the federal government is amnesty on illegal aliens, that claims illegal immigration is good for the economy, that threatens vetoes against Congressional efforts to stop it, that files defenses of its own unconstitutional acts to support illegal immigration and in turn files offensive suits against states to stop them from enforcing US immigration law, knowing full well that it takes smugglers and money and banks and weapons and so much more for illegal aliens to enter the country, is just wrong and pointing fingers at scapegoats.

Don't blame the banks. The banks are business people, they are not law enforcement, they are private enterprises charged with making money, they are not the right entities to catch smugglers, illegal aliens, drug cartels or money launderers.

Blame the entity 100% responsible for illegal immigration and all the crimes associated with it, the federal government, because it is the entity funded with billions of taxpayer dollars to enforce our laws, and to date, it is by its own hand and mouth, the primary party with the power and authority to enforce those laws. There is no one else to blame.

Seriously, many in the federal government are on the take, lining their pockets with drug money talking out of both sides of their mouths while the borders are open and our nation is flooded with illegal aliens the government refuses to deport, in direct conflict with our laws and its constitutional duties. There is no valid reason for its behavior other than those calling the shots are on the take with the cartels behind this travesty.
